All fine and well priced work , but am I the only person left in the UK who doesn’t like grey and white …. 🤔

I worked at Barclays at the sharp end for 30 years. when I started we were razor sharp Essex barrow Boys, numbers in your head like a book maker, fast and all in. when I left we were all knowing information super kings with all the toys to be ahead of the game. but that was ten years ago. the new generation laughed at us with their computer skills and data harvesting what they are up to now with A.I. etc must be frightening. either way. bet on the big banks. not the government.

we will all be pound trillionaires. and it will be the FTSE 10,000. but a pint of milk will cost 92,000 digital credits

in ten years time we will be down to 1/16 ths

they will be bringing out the 9 carat sov soon. the balance made up with eco friendly hemp

oh bollocks.. I married red head in 1989!

a fine batch of typically solvent middle ranking regional banks.. they have done no wrong but will be shafted. lots of people think these banks are Ponzi schemes. they are not. they are the opposite of the general public in US states who have always used local banks. they are not the Lehmans and bear sterns of the world people lend short and borrow long. you deposit your salary and get a mortgage . banks do the opposite. they borrow short (your loot) . and lend long. your mortgage thats what these American banks do.. they were told to hedge excess funds in treasuries and now they are properly ****ed. and to be fair id say its the regulations post 2008 that has ****ed them not any 'casino' banking still all good for gold.

https://tradingeconomics.com/commodities when you have hiked rates a tad too much

US mortgage rates are based on longer maturities then here in the UK. we tend to go for 2 years. the US 10 or longer. the rate hike like today has actually seen a small fall in longer dated yields.. anyway back to gold. what regional bank is next. there will be one along soon going bust.

its all about regional US banks at the moment. another hike squeezes their balance sheets, some online fear starts withdrawal frenzy.. blah blah JP Morgan picks up another bank for free with taxpayer guarantees. its the perfect business model buy their shares gold is up nearly 2 per cent this week in dollars. its just that dollars are now considered a bit terrible..

They said in 2008, that with bank bail outs being done as they were, everyone in America would end up banking with JP Morgan well that’s coming along nicely. With zero ‘state based’ banking in the Uk we are not as exposed to this lunacy . golds up on the back of this, there will be another bank next week. America has thousands of em

pop me in to the lottery please BYB

Backyard Bullion has a you tube back catalogue of excellent videos, he may have something on this .. I know he sends his stuff off for hallmarking In Edinburgh in think? adds to costs but looks great and gives the customer the security they want

he is the man for the job. keep the legal bedwetters out of the game though.

A drop,in bond yields will put money into stocks. And gold .. im almost thinking about selling soon. I’ve got a house renovation on, so could use the loot, and I’ve become emotionally attached to my gold. Always a bad sign !

The RM will be smashing KC silver coins as fast as they can . quality control will be taking a back seat .. I’ve be doing a test on 2 coins and a bar All 1 ounce silver. I’ve had em on my desk. They have been handled constantly, with no gloves and unwashed hands !! my dogs have stood on them, I’ve spilt beer on them, I’ve handled them after eating crisps. You name it. thus far not a milk spot in sight.. there is a silver Brit , an eagle, and an Englehard bar .. over the last 6 months a rinse under a tap, a tiny bit of soap and soft cloth all good as gold. er, I mean silver , Not so much as a scratch on the coins, natch the Englehard is a tad less pristine but in as good as nick as it was 6 month ago it must be in the manufacturing

Cash will always yield less than inflation. Well spread investments over global stock markets will outperform over time. Well they always have . Much like your primary property which has great tax benefits .. pensions are a better bet than isas , you get a freebie on the way in. When it’s most useful

The RM could make a silver coin that would rust

If you are going to hedge or punt stuff IG is an excellent platform and it’s tax free .. but I’d recommend only using it for hedging. I pretty sure that 90 per cent of ‘punters’ lose out in the end due to the ability to leverage

Revolut does all of this, but you are into the ‘shadow’ banking sector. I wouldn’t leave a large amount of loot with them

I stick with bullion. There are far too many people on here with encyclopaedic knowledge of numismatic stuff to even attempt to compete with. It would be like playing chess with Spassky.. silver however has more scope for being a moron. I don’t mind buying some so called vintage bars at a pound or two over the odds . I love em and I know I’ll make a mint when silver gets to 30 quid…. Mm maybe leave those in the will.

22 carat all the way. Early brits the best , krugs and sovs.. er me shipmates ………
